Do I need to add that the numbers aren't even right? Property taxes in Austin aren't $46 per $1000. They're less then half that level.

Incredible stuff from the city of Boston. We checked rents in 4 cities and proved taxes don't correlate with rent!

A top businessman believes Boston should tear down some of its office buildings and replace them with housing, saying that initiatives supported on Beacon Hill and in Boston City Hall aren’t enough as the region remains hampered by a post-pandemic slowdown.

A new gene therapy trial slowed Huntington’s Disease by an average of 75% in patients.

It involves delivery of a modified but safe virus that produces microRNA in the brain to counteract mutations in the huntingtin gene.

We can achieve amazing things when we fund science!

my kids went to diff't driving schools in Mass. Both had this weird idea that we should teach them to drive first, then they could go to driving school.

You guys have the cars with dual breaks! And the experience teaching people to drive!

Cherry-picking favorable numbers in the #mapoli jobs report was a bad look last month.

Now, with Trump undermining the legitimacy of BLS, it's just unconscionable. Stop it.

The issue with GPT-5 in a nutshell is that unless you pay for model switching & know to use GPT-5 Thinking or Pro, when you ask “GPT-5” you sometimes get the best available AI & sometimes get one of the worst AIs available and you can’t tell and it might even switch within a single conversation.

Playing with GPT-5 and my initial feeling is: powerful but slightly annoying.

- Asked for help converting a markdown syllabus to html and it added a bunch of new (summary) info

- Spent time tweaking to get it right and it started outputting partial versions

-A historic capex boom can’t lift 1H real GDP growth ex-noise beyond the 1%’s
-A modest housing recession hasn’t dragged the overall economy into recession

Both are true/are related.

I think the universe of voters who are:

-anti-crypto
-anti-gambling
-anti-algo
-pro-vax
-pro-choice
-anti-gun

is less than 40% so it’s about thinking about what you can live with.

This crypto ratio stuff is like asserting that Matchbox 20 is properly worth exactly four Maroon 5's, even though the numbers have no substantive relationship to anything in the real word or to one another.
